Study those 3 for a month.

What do you think about my other strategy of doing seg study and bonus depreciation on all my rentals for the year 2023 (have not filed it yet) to do the following:1- To get a bigger loss carried forward to 2024 to offset the sale of 3 properties instead of 2 in 2024. 2- Or, Since I married a realtor this year 2024 (and we passed the IRS active participation test together), I can activate that loophole, use whatever loss (bigger lost if we can use the seg study) is left over from the sale of the property to offset my high  W-2 wages (way over the $150K threshold) in 2024. 

Study the market.

If a law may change (as you mentioned) and you're fully invested in that state, that could affect your overall portfolio returnI don't want to sound like my strategy is better than yours, absolutely not, you trough out some good points and I respect that.I started in 2010 so have some experience too, I have invested in more than 15 states and know almost all the rules and regulation on those states, but I'm always willing to learn more and keep studying every day.
